Former Mozambican president Joaquim Chissano has blasted Europe and the United States for being obsessed with attacking President Mugabe while Zimbabweans suffer.
Tyranies have gone and Mugabe has to go. Because it is the wishe of the Zimbabwaen people no matter what the likes of chissano may say time is now and the will of god will prevail over the Zimbabwean people and he is sooner or later going to pay for the price for this humantarian crisis. Viva MDC
The words in parenthesis and capitals are from the Herald the rest is from the Zimbabwe Guardian, I think you'll see what I'm getting at:
FORMER Mozambican president Joaquim Chissano criticised(BLASTED) Europe and the United States for (BEING OBSESSED WITH ATTACKING)exerting more pressure on Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe while Zimbabweans suffer. "We must think of the people who are suffering under an embargo-like situation. Nobody cooperates with Zimbabwe anymore," Chissano told the Sueddeutsche Zeitung in an interview(PUBLISHED YESTERDAY).
"The Europeans and Americans are focusing too strongly on (PRESIDENT)Mugabe." Chissano said the most important consideration, above and beyond politics, was the need to rescue Zimbabwe's sanctioned economy. Chissano also said if President Mugabe was willing to make a new start it was not important that he step down. "A new start must be made to improve the economic situation. For me it is not important whether Mugabe steps down but whether there is a new start." He also said that (HEAPING)putting pressure on President Mugabe's government (COULD BE) is unhelpful and counter-productive. HERALD ONLY: ("The election is not over, so I cannot say yet whether (Cde) Mugabe must go. One must leave him the opportunity for dialogue). "Change that is brought about by pressure does not last. Whenever pressure has been exerted on Zimbabwe, the situation has worsened." Former colonial power Britain and Australia have promised, "more"[sarcasm added] sanctions on Zimbabwe if President Mugabe wins the run-off election next week.
It just goes to show, you read one pro mugabe rag you've read them all.
The Zimbabwe G-erald......copied from another source for you by the Junta Of...Plagiarists?
Let's not forget how virtually all these people were one in agreement that sanctions were a good tool against Rhodesia and in bringing Smithy to heel. How tunes change ...how tunes change.
Turnex, Rhodesia is a completely defeated country and increasingly exists only on the internet and outside Zimbabwe. You are out, and very bitter white people. Now most of you are doing manual labor, cleaning toilets in Europe. Your vile is all over that even in South Africa you are hated. And quite frankly who cares about Rhodesia anymore! It has been 27 years since your defeat and now less than 40,000 of your kind live in Zimbabwe. Some of your kind are now destitute and beggars in Bulawayo and other Zimbabwean cities. What a site! to see a white Rhodesian beggar. You get no mercy from me and others. You are a bad batch of people. Your children have no future in Zimbabwe or elsewhere for that matter. You are an evil batch and so-called "White-Africans" what a joke!
turnex, see why I said you should write to Phiri in Shona again? He still thinks you're white because you critisize the Zim govt.
Phiri, we've been over this stupid "you're all toilet cleaners" argument before. Nobody is believes that rubbish. If you really don't care about Rhodesia and "Rhodies" then why do you keep going on about them? Let go of your blame and move forward!
mindpower, I totally get you man. We used to have a term for people like this..remember it..we called people like him a mufourteen...ha ha ha
Phiri, respond to my post instead of accusing me of being this or the other. All I pointed out was when the world was clamouring for sanctions against rhodesia not one voice came out and said it was a bad thing...and dont forget it was WHITE countries including the Britain you hate so much now that imposed these sanctions. The rhodesians were being punished for refusing one man one vote..today we have a horrid little thug murdering his own people and the only sanction against HIM and HIS cronies is not to go on shopping trips to EU and USA and all you eggheads are calling for them to be lifted saying it is harming the people of zimbabwe. I did not know that mugabe and grace did groceries for zimbabweans everytime they travelled abroad!!!
You betray your prejudices in your other rant about toilet cleaners. What is wrong with cleaning toilets?? Who is meant to clean them then?? Do you not clean your own toilet at home?? Your thinking is what has destroyed zimbabwe...the "its not my job" mentality. yes, I cleaned toilets and swept streets when I first arrived abroad..but you want to know something, I now hold a high position in an international company..not bad for someone who only a few years ago realised to feed oneself I had to do whatever work came my way now is it???
What about you??? What are you doing with all your hard earned currency that is hurtling down the toilet faster than you can earn it????
In 1965 l was old enough to know what was going on havi been born at the start of 1943 and also was living in Highfield township, the then spiritual capital of african nationalism .... there were no sanctions in practice. l remember columns of white south africans bringing petrol. Rhodesia carried on under the racist Field and Smith who replaced Sir Edgar Whitehead, the then prime minister. You certainly telling hal-truth mixed with downright manipulative lies. In short, you blah blah blah
I love how the Herald makes out Chissano is a big player. Like its a battle between Chissano and the West. The west couldnt care less what Chissano says. Its like a mute ant shouting at a deaf elephant.
